Seems like using the Xyron machine would be a cheaper way to go. They have many different sizes on Amazon. You could run your cardstock through, and then cut your die cut:
Robot Check
Don't know why that says Robot check. It's a link to Amazon.

3 reasons why I don't want to use a Xyron:
1. It wouldn't work for the inlaid diecuts.
2. It wouldn't work for the polished silk technique.
3. I detest how the adhesive on a Xyron oozes from behind my diecut; it ends up smearing my card front.
I have tried all 3 techniques I listed in the first post with Scorpal & Silhouette adhesive sheets, and they work great. I was looking for a more affordable alternative. I was actually at Amazon today, and had saved the 11" for later just in case they got more in. Harvestmoon, I placed my order today!
I just remembered something else I use the full-sheet adhesive for: making my own washi tape!

Okay, you got me. Those are all perfectly good reasons not to use the Xyron!

I use my Xyron for inlaid diecuts all the time. I run the cardstock through the Xyron first, then die cut it.
